Description

Indulge all your senses from this ocean-view, 3-bedroom, 2-bath Hanalei beach home.

If you were any closer to the waves of Hanalei Bay, you’d need flippers. You’ll hear the surf from every room in this three-bedroom, two-bath beach house that’s a mere 80 steps from the velvety sands of world-famous Hanalei Bay, considered the best beach in all of Hawaii. Tucked away on a short cul-de-sac street, this 1,900-square-foot home’s elegant design, superior location in Hanalei and spectacular views offer guests a memorable immersion in a tropical wonderland.

Fully remodeled and furnished to anticipate vacationers’ every need, the charms of this extraordinary home are evident the moment you step onto the property, lushly landscaped with plumeria and orchids under a canopy of papaya and coconut palm trees. On the breakfast bar, find a gift basket of local artisan chocolate, Hawaiian spices and discount coupons that will introduce you to favorite Kauai treats and adventures—ice cream, bike rentals and a catered dinner.

Kick off your sandals and rinse the day’s sand from your toes in the elegant foot bath or hot-water outdoor shower, then step up to the expansive second story. The home’s open-floor plan brings ocean and garden views into the combined kitchen and dining area, where you’ll routinely gather to recount the day’s adventures. Leaf through our book of suggestions for hiking, dining and sightseeing, or borrow beach gear for a day of sunny recreation. Be inspired by the home’s gallery-worth photography of Kauai landmarks to plan your next outing.

Strategically located windows open to the cooling ocean breezes and bring a light, airy atmosphere to every room. Arranged to offer privacy for couples, friends or families, this ideal vacation getaway with 12-foot cathedral ceilings immerses guests in the island’s laid-back lifestyle. In no time, you’ll be dining outside on the lanai (that’s what some call a deck or porch), sipping coffee outside the master bedroom in the morning and gathering for an ocean-view meal at night. With a kitchen outfitted for the most discerning chefs, you’ll be turning out quick meals on the barbecue gas grill with ease.

The private master suite has a king bed, large closet, dressing area, adjoining bathroom and access to a private lanai. There are two spacious guest bedrooms, one with a queen bed and the second guest bedroom with two twin beds that can convert to a king if needed. Both of these rooms have beautiful views of the lush tropical landscaping surrounding this home.

In anticipation of our guests’ every need, the electronic front door locks require no keys to pick up, share or return. There is a large flat-screen TV, and high-speed Wi-Fi powers all your devices. The kitchen is fully stocked to meet all of your dining needs including shopping bags for your Farmer’s Market visits, basic seasonings and cleaning supplies. The downstairs laundry room features an over-sized washer and dryer. Throughout the home, labels and instructions aid familiarity with the house and appliances.

At sundown, you’ll soon appreciate the origin of Sunset Hale’s name. Sip a frosty cocktail as the setting sun nightly washes you with its crimson rays and reflect on yet another day in paradise.

We have stayed in many a short-term rental, and few have ever had everything so perfectly put together.

Looking forward to returning here some day down the road.

Thank you to the management company and home owners and other staff for accommodating us during unusual circumstances. We are forever grateful.

The property was as advertised. Right by the beach. Walking distance to town.

Owner/manager communicated with us several times between booking and arrival. They also responded immediately to questions we had upon arrival.

If you stay in this area make sure you eat at Kalypso. If you want to shop at regular stores they are fairly close to this area in Kapa’a.

This home is perfect for a family. One house away from beach front, with ocean views and excellent windows to take advantage of the tradewinds. The house was very well equipped. The master bedroom is separate from the other two bedrooms which is nice for privacy. Washer and dryer on site and plenty of locked storage for your surfboards and other beach toys, without having them take up space in the house.

We joined our friends at this house in September/October. It is an amazing house. Much nicer than the photos on the web site. Extremely well furnished for our group of 6. If I had a magic wand, I would have a little larger refrigerator for 6 people. I know there is no room in the kitchen for a larger refrigerator, but maybe something outside for drinks? We loved hearing the surf at night when we went to bed.

Steps from the beach and only a few blocks from town. This is a very relaxing home to stay in and is kept up as a home of this caliber should be. Our grandson now calls this the “Ocean House” as you can sit on the end of the deck and see the ocean. We hope to return in the near future.

We are two couples of seniors, and this was our 6th VRBO rental on Kauai in the past 8 years. It was also one of the nicest homes we have stayed in. Very clean and comfortable, perfectly furnished, and in a perfect location with a one minute walk to the beach and a 5 minute walk to the middle of beautiful Hanalei. We will be back! Of special note as far as exemplary service, was the wonderful treatment we received from all of the staff of Kauai Vacation Rentals, especially Lucy. She kept it in constant touch with us from our day of arrival during one of the worst rainstorms in local history, the temporary road closure into Hanalei, and until our final settling into our rental. Mahalo!

The pictures do not do it justice. It is a lovely and well-equipped home with various spaces to relax in. It has beach toys, umbrellas, and beach chairs,we rented some SUPs for the week and were set! 

We've stayed on North Shore a few times, but never in Hanalei. So spoiling to be one house from the beach and an easy walk to town. We tried driving to one of our old favorite beaches one day and were reminded what a pain it is to pack everyone and everything in a car and back. For a family wanting to play on the beach, this is all you can ask for.

It's bright and cheerful, comfortable and is the most well stocked Vacation Rental we've ever experienced and is close to the beach. We think that the owners have thought our the needs of vacationers as if it was their own home. No need has been forgotten. Nice towels, sheets, dishes, cooking equipment and beach supplies.

We stayed at this property from 3/25/17 to 4/1/17 and could not have been happier. The home itself is wonderful, with a nicely sized master suite, a very comfortable second bedroom, and a third bedroom with two twin beds. The kitchen is spacious and has everything you need. The covered deck affords a pleasant view of the ocean and Hanalei Bay...we spent many hours out there and at the nearby beach, which is just a moment's walk away. We would happily stay here again and we thought it was an excellent value considering the location. 

As with any home located this close to the beach, there is occasional foot and vehicle traffic late into the night and early each morning. We did not find this too bothersome but it is something to consider with any home in a similar location.

We really enjoyed our stay and came to love the little town of Hanalei. The house is spacious and has many fans and windows for great ventilation. We loved the complimentary gifts, especially the catered dinner. The beach was just a few steps away and it was a short walk into Hanalei town. It rained a lot during our visit so we couldn’t eat outdoors on the lanai very often so we ate most of our meals around the kitchen bar counter. The bar stools, while comfortable, were a little too high for the kids. Lower chairs in the kitchen area, similar to the ones in the dining room, would have been better for our family. It would have helped us to have received a message from management before we left for Kauai with suggestions of where we could get dinner and breakfast when we first arrived in Hanalei. But we loved the house and the town and we will certainly go back!

We were here 11 years ago. Now we have my beautiful 7 year old son here on his first vacation to Hawaii. He wants to buy your house. This was the best family vacation I have ever had! Thank you so much for having this piece of paradise for us to use. Your house is so lovely and accommodating. It has everything we needed, including beach equipment for our son. We swam, walked, ate and had so many laughs and made so many lasting memories here. We are grateful. We have had some challenges over the past couple of years and this has been a wonderful place to heal. Hanalei is always so spiritually healing!

We have rented six different houses in Hanalei over the past 10 years and this is our favorite house if we have more than 2 people. Sunset Hale is the best rental house location, the best rental house kitchen area, and there is a wonderful outdoor shower. If we had a magic wand, we would ask for a tea kettle and a fan in the master bathroom. There was an issue with the house safe but it was quickly resolved by KVR.

This is the second time we have stayed in this house, and it is by far the best furnished house we have rented. We have small children, and since the house is only one in from Hanalei Bay, it is super convenient to walk back and forth with them (no strollers needed!) for meals, naps, and other things. There are a bunch of beach toys at the house too, which was an unexpected perk, and having the heated outdoor shower was perfect for washing all that sand off before we went inside. The dining room is very nice, but we ended up eating all of our meals outside on the lanai, which has ocean views. We made most of our meals ourselves, and found the kitchen to be really well equipped. There is a pretty nice DVD collection, but there are so many other things to do close by that we never even turned the TV on. The beds were really comfortable, and the house is in great condition. Nice art and photography too. We highly recommend staying here!

I have stayed in this home 3 times and will continue to return as often as possible. Wonderful location; the Hanalei Bay glitters just beyond the lanai. The home is beautifully appointed and so very comfortable and inviting. This lovely home has all of the amenities to make a vacation here complete and very difficult to leave behind. I will always return here.
